Okay, I originally ordered a Note 7 through Samsung.com, but ended up returning it before this whole recall mess. I have already received a refund to my credit card. However, I've now gotten multiple emails from Samsung.com stating that I can exchange said phone for a new one or get a refund. I...

The only thing I've noticed is my new phone has more black clipping. Feels like the gamma is too high. Besides that, the phone feels about the same as my previous one. Both have/had fantastic battery life.

My local Bestbuy has stock. I'm contemplating just walking in and getting the phone today and then return my Samsung.com order when I get it. What a complete mess by Samsung.

I just got email saying my 256Gb microsd card shipped, but no phone. Now I can't even cancel the order. I hate you Samsung.

Maybe preorder demand was much higher than they anticipated through the carriers/bestbuy and so now they're redirecting their samsung.com inventory to help supply that demand?

If this is the case, then why even offer pre-ordering on their site? Or at least make it clear that they won't be shipping out the phones until Aug 26th. If this is true, it makes absolutely no sense.

The one on the left actually looks more accurate to me. The one on the right is too blue/cool. Could be just my monitor though.

I got this EXACT same canned response from Samsung.

Is this the case for folks that pre-ordered directly from Samsung.com? At this point, I'd be happy to get it the day of release or even 1 day afterwards.

Has anyone ever pre-ordered through Samsung.com for previous phone releases? Do they have a track record of delivering before/on/after the official release date?

Any thickness growth for the wireless charging back?

Re: Battery life on Note3 I'm getting outstanding battery life out of my VZW Note 3. I've enabled power savings mode, only auto-sync necessary apps, and keep my display brightness at ~10 out of 100 (still plenty bright for all situations except bright sunlight outdoors). I've been averaging...

Sooks, why was your Verizon Note 3 box white?

Do you have power saving mode enabled? And with that, do you have the screen power saving option checked? I think this will dim the display in certain apps...

I wish the Note 3 supported more apps in the mult-window and pen window modes out of the box. I know if you root, you can enable more app support, but I don't see why they couldn't have more apps straight out of the box....
